Our Story
Driven by a profound love for horses and a dedication to the equestrian lifestyle, Fred Erik Nilsen, alongside his wife, Eva Helen, a skilled rider and equine expert from Norway, founded Equinavia in 2008. They envisioned creating a brand that reflected the enduring bond between horse and rider, bringing their passion for Scandinavian equestrian traditions to North America.

Deeply influenced by Scandinavian heritage, Equinavia celebrates simplicity, functionality, and timeless beauty. The spirit of Nordic design permeates every element of the equestrian lifestyle we inspire, honoring the traditions that equestrians worldwide admire.

Equinavia is built on the belief that every rider deserves to feel empowered, supported, and connected to their equestrian passion. We believe equestrianism is more than a sport; it’s a lifestyle that embodies freedom, trust, and adventure. Whether you are striving for excellence in the arena, exploring scenic trails, or simply cherishing quiet moments with your horses, we inspire riders to pursue their passion with authenticity and pride. We are a community united by a shared love of horses, cherishing the connections between riders, horses, and fellow equestrians, and fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.
